Gerard Deulofeu, Nathaniel Chalobah and Miguel Britos are all in contention to start Watford’s Carabao Cup encounter at Reading. The Hornets make the trip to the Madejski Stadium on Wednesday night with a 100 per cent winning record in the Premier League, after overcoming the likes of Brighton, Burnley and Crystal Palace so far.

With results being so positive in the league, manager Javi Gracia has been reluctant to tinker too much with his starting line-ups but a League Cup trip to Reading is set to provide opportunities for fringe players.
Deulofeu, Chalobah and Britos are all in line for starting roles, while striker Stefano Okaka is also pushing for selection following his recent recovery from a leg injury.
